The 37-year-old woman was sentenced to seven years and three months' jail on Monday for the offence which took place on March 20, 2021, as well as for other drug-related offences.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Joseph Gwee told the court on Monday that the offender had offered Ice - the street name for methamphetamine - to her daughter and permitted her to smoke it in their home. Urine samples taken from both mother and daughter following their arrest were later found to contain the drug.
He meted out an eight-month sentence for her possession offence, and ordered this sentence to run concurrently with the other two. Rai said the main intention for the corresponding law was to protect very young children from the harmful exposure of drugs, and cited a letter from the daughter in which she said she was not introduced to drugs by her mother.
